Six Nations 2018

I must confess to saying that I thought Cockerill was a poor choice for Edinburgh.
Happy to be proved wrong.

He been good and on track to get Edinburgh into the playoffs

This is an absolute disgrace. I'm sure these brave individuals/group of lads would have been so forthcoming with their views if a few of his team were with him!

Very true and embarrassing for us, very neddy behaviour which has gone beyond exuberance, not what you associate with rugby normally. Surprised at EJ not going home as part of a group.

He went to Manchester as a special guest of Sir Alex for the Man Utd v Chelsea game.

Probable Championship decider this afternoon.
Can't see the Scots getting past Ireland but, you never know.
I hope Ireland open it up and give us a great game.

It’s only the decider if Ireland win, can’t see Scotland getting a sniff but we live in hope. Poor forecast suggests it could be an arm wrestle rather than a throwing it about day.

I’m on my way to Hoggys new bar & restaurant to watch the game

Cracking first half, quite fancy Scotland to nick this.

It’s going to need Ireland to commit suicide 4 times now. More chance of Nicola Sturgon becoming a super model

😂😂 - No chance. Cannot see them scoring 3 tries against this Ireland outfit. Being given a lesson this week.

Hold on a minute - I may have been too quick on the 'no chance'.......!! 😟

Horn makes 2 or 3 shocking decisions over 80 minutes every week. If he could keep his composure a bit more he would be superb

 

[Captainron]

Down to England to win well now but I hope the French stuff them

 

[Captainron]

Well done Ireland. Deserved that. On to Twickenham for the grand slam.

Scoreline glattered Ireland I thought, small margins. Scotland need to go and beat Italy in the last game and for me that’s progression. Beating both England and France and losing away to Wales and Ireland is no shame. Many and Grand slam have nbeen ruined at both stadiums

I watched the second half of the French game in an hotel TV room which was half full of visiting English golfers and half full of locals.
The locals were impeccably behaved apart from the sleekit wee winks and smiles. The visitors were very vocal.:lol:

Well played Ireland, quality team of the tournament, hope they do the grand slam.
Scotland had plenty of chances but unfortunately none came off, small margins eh. Brave attacking rugby played by both sides.

I didn't watch rugby, not really my game, but 28-8 is a bit of a gubbing for Scotland is it not? Saw it was 7-3 near half time, what happened?

England lost away to France, no shame in that and Eddie Jones says they're not far away - is he right? 2 defeats for England, possibly 3 after Ireland visit is nowhere near good enough is it?

Watched the Ireland v Scotland game in the bar (in the company of some happy Irishmen) and no-one really felt the scoreline was a true reflection. Ireland more clinical with their chances and of course an intercepted try always going to hurt. As for England, that's two sub-par performances now and they look nothing like the second best ranked side in the world

England aren’t far away. Don’t believe the cut & paste merchants. If they can keep the ball for more than 5 phases they will score plenty tries. Problem is currently they can’t!!

The last round of matches may produce a surprising look to the final table.

Scorline flattered Ireland IMO, the key difference was they were clinical and Scotland a bit sloppy when it mattered
